VAT or value added tax VAT is a tax levied on most goods and services provided by VAT registered businesses. It was introduced to the UK in 1973 replacing the Purchase Tax. The current standard VAT rate is 20%, that is an increase from 17.5% on 4 January 2011.

Any UK business that provide taxable goods or services whose taxable turnover exceeds the threshold of £85,000 must register for VAT and once registered that business must charge VAT on the full sale price of the goods or services.
